    Great achievement, congrats. Unfortunately the friends I mean are very intimate with all sorts of substances, and because all friends in that circle are like this, it’s hard to escape without basically also quitting your friend group. It’s one of the reasons I’m friendly with them but not actually part of the group.

      I feel that. I didnt mention before but i also smoked weed for many of those years. I kicked that a few years before kicking tobacco

      I barely see or even speak to anyone from that circle now. i both miss them and dont miss them. I found a lot of drug friends tend to be fairweather friends. Not all of them. Theres always a core few that stick with you when you cant get a bag but all have nothing to do. But the majority in my experience, you dont miss when they are gone.
